Change User and Admin Passwords for Polycom Phones

This will allow you to change the web and telephone keypad passwords for admin (default is 456) and User (default is 123) on the Polycom phones. Tested with Polycom firmware version 4.0.4 and sipXecs version 4.6 Update 8.

  • Log into server command line interface.
  • With your favorite text editor, create /var/sipxdata/configserver/phone/profile/tftproot/passwords.cfg
  • The file should look like the following:

 

Code Block
title/var/sipxdata/configserver/phone/profile/tftproot/passwords.cfg
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<device device.set="1">
  <device.auth device.auth.localAdminPassword="your_admin_pwd" device.auth.localUserPassword="your_user_pwd">
    <device.auth.localAdminPassword device.auth.localAdminPassword.set="1">
    </device.auth.localAdminPassword>
    <device.auth.localUserPassword device.auth.localUserPassword.set="1">
    </device.auth.localUserPassword>
  </device.auth>
</device>

 

  • Save your file.
  • In the sipXecs web interface, you can apply this to phones individually or to groups in the Custom Configuration field. If that field is blank, input just the filename you created above (not the entire path); if you already have other custom config files, you can append this to the list.
  • Save, send profiles and restart phones.
